If you follow at least a little bit of developments in the field of IT and office technology, you couldn’t have missed the mention of the AI tool Copilot, which is being developed by Microsoft. A version of Copilot for Microsoft 365 is now available for all organisations.
Only the largest corporations had access to it before the beginning of the year. Since the turn of January and February, it has been available to all users of licensing plans for businesses and educational institutions, regardless of size.
Unlike tools such as Word, Teams, OneDrive or Planner, Copilot is not yet an integral part of the feature set. It has to be purchased as a separate add-on.
While until now, getting Copilot for Microsoft 365 was subject to a certain minimum quantity, there is now no minimum limit for orders. However, Microsoft still recommends, and we can only encourage, that all team members get Copilot. This will make their collaboration more effective and the tool itself will better show its full benefits.
